The experts from the Directorate of Epigraphy, KR Narasimhan and his associate K Dhanpal have visited the site and are further examining other inscriptions.
Speaking to a media house, Narasimhan said until now, they know about only one inscription that mentioned Sri Krishna Deva Raya’s death. It was found in Sri Kalahasti of Andhra Pradesh and there, it was mentioned that Achyuta Devaraya, the younger brother of Sri Krishnadevaraya, was coronated as the fourth king of Tuluva dynasty on October 21, 1529. But they never knew the exact date of his death. With this discovery, it is now proved that Achyutadevaraya was coronated four days after the death of his predecessor Sri Krishnadevaraya.
